Okay, so I've got this bitchin' $80 Driving Force wheel, but I need to know what plays well with it. Here's what I've tried so far, with notes.

GT4 - Absolutely perfect. I have never seen better handling with a racing wheel.
Burnout 3 - Decent. No better or worse than the Dual Shock, I'd say.
Auto Modellista - Crap. Handles worse than with the Dual Shock. Much worse.
Ferrari F355 - Pretty good. Seems to have a huge dead zone, though, making steering a little bit more awkward than it needs to be.
R: Racing Evolution - I'm not sure if I'm doing something wrong here. The car keeps throwing itself into spins and slides at the slightest touch. I'll have to experiment more with this one.
Total Immersion Racing - Doesn't work! It's on the compatibility list, but the wheel and gas pedal don't respond. The brake works fine, though. Gee, how nice.
GT3 - Haven't tested it with this wheel yet, actually. With GT4 sitting around, I haven't had much need to. ;-)

The full compatibility list can be found here on the Logitech site (http://www.logitech.com/promotions/promo.cfm?countryid=19&languageid=1&contentid=7873). Note that I have the Driving Force, not the Driving Force Pro. So, have you guys played any of these games using the DF? What works well with it?

GT3 does work well with the wheel (which I got as a Christmas gift). Although I seem to remember some purists complaining that putting the brake down to the floor is interpreted by GT3 as something less than full brake application (like 80% or so). I'm not sure whether that complaint was specific to only GT3 or if it was a problem with the wheel in general. Hell, I'm not even sure if it's true. Not being a huge racing fan, I couldn't point you to where I read that stuff, unfortunately.
